YONKERS, NY — This Halloween season, They Who Are Not There return for their 6th year to the Park Hill Racquet Club with The Veil, an original immersive horror experience set in a fictionalized version of Yonkers’ Park Hill neighborhood on Halloween night, 1988.
Running October 23–25, The Veil transforms the venue into a haunted neighborhood filled with trick-or-treaters, residents, old houses, local legends and things that may be better left undisturbed.
Unlike a traditional haunted house, there is no single path through The Veil. Guests are free to wander the neighborhood, enter different environments, interact with its residents and follow whichever stories catch their attention. Live performance, atmospheric horror, jump scares and supernatural encounters unfold around them, meaning different guests may leave having experienced very different versions of the same Halloween night.
The production draws inspiration from Park Hill itself—its historic homes, winding streets, close-knit community and the kind of neighborhood folklore that gets passed from one generation to another.
“Park Hill already feels like a place built for ghost stories,” said director for They Who Are Not There. “We wanted to recreate that feeling of wandering a neighborhood on Halloween night, when every porch has a story, every kid has heard a rumor, and you’re never quite sure what might be waiting at the next house.”
The Veil is the latest original production from They Who Are Not There, a Westchester-based group creating interactive horror experiences since 2016. The approximately forty-five minute experience combines immersive theatre with the scares of a haunted attraction, allowing audiences to decide for themselves what—and who—they follow.
They Who Are Not There Presents: The Veil runs October 23–25, 2026 at the Park Hill Racquet Club in Yonkers. Tickets and additional information are available at [theywhoarenotthere.com](http://theywhoarenotthere.com)
